Pecco Bagnaia can't "waste" opportunity of good points despite early 2025 struggles

Tardozzi insists Ducati is “missing something” in understandin൩g why Bagnaia is struggling, particularly on th🔥e front end of the GP25, but is confident he will get on terms with Marquez soon.

“I just spoke with Pecco,” he told TNT Sport afte𒀰r the Argentina GP.

“The small, small problem on the bike that didn’t give him the right feeling  on th𓄧e left corners.

“But in the end ๊we trust him and we wai🦋t for him for one or two more races and I’m sure he will be back.

“Yeah, we 💜know that COTA is kind of a dream part for Marc Marquez. But Qatar we do expect P𓆉ecco will be there fighting with him for the win.

“It’s a very difficult job to support him,🧸 but even for him to keep focused on the best positions he is doing - third place, fourth pl📖ace, to collect points because it will be the time that he will gain points and he must not waste them.”

Tardozzi𒆙 added: “I d🗹on’t think that he’s under pressure.

“The🔯re is ൲something that we haven’t understood yet, not even him.

“There is something that we miss on the settings, there 🐻is something that we miss helping him, there is something we ✤have to talk about.

✃“And I think soon we will find it because I think Pecco is not riding like the end of last year and he has no confidence on the front at all.

“And th💝at’s the problem that we see on the data, compared to last year.”

Tardozzi also noted that Ducati is working with Bagnaia on a new strategy for race weekends to try to get him to hit t🍒he ground running from Fridays.

“We already have some chat ▨with Gigi [Dall’Igna] and the engineers and Pecco too, and we will do something. I’m s🔯ure that we will help him.”
